[Python] Tying data to a user's account

I am writing a signup form for my django site. And basically I want them to hit submit and create the account. I have written code that creates a license key when they hit it but I don't know how to tie it to their account. Any ideas?

from django.shortcuts import render, redirect
from django.contrib.auth import login
from .forms import SignupForm
from Functions.average_getter_shortened import baseline
from Functions.today_checker import today_getter
from Functions.license_key import license_getter
def signup(request):
if request.method == 'POST':
form = SignupForm(request.POST)
if form.is_valid():
user = form.save()
try:
license_key = license_getter(access_key='access_key')
except:
license_key = 'Key'
login(request, user)
return render(request, r'registration\license_key.html', {'license_key' : license_key})
else:
form = SignupForm()
return render(request, r'registration\signup.html', {'form': form})


I tried to implement user.save() after the except statement but then the website wouldnt redirect to the license_key page. I also tried my best to search up 'how to tie data to a user's account' but no luck.

I know this is quite a stupid question but I am new to django and couldn't find any resources on how to do this.
